In this neck of the woods, I have to agree with Griff - Republicans will turn out to vote in greater numbers than Democrats in an off-year election. I live in a Republican stronghold in spite of it also being economically depressed and a haven for those who need public support.

People in this area feel they're treated contemptuously by Democrats, so even if they need government help, they continue to support a party that doesn't listen to them.
